Influence of Marketing and Advertising: Influence of Marketing and Advertising A study on alcohol advertising in magazines from 1997 to 2001 found that the number of beer and distilled spirits ads tended to increase with a magazine's youth readership. For every 1 million underage readers ages 12-19 in a magazine, researchers generally found 1.6 times more beer advertisements and 1.3 times more distilled spirits advertisements.2 A study published in January 2006 concludes that greater exposure to alcohol advertising contributes to an increase in drinking among underage youth. Specifically, for each additional ad a young person saw above the average for youth, he or she was 1% more likely to drink. For each additional dollar spent per capita on alcohol advertising in a local market, young people drank 3% more.3 A recent study of eighth-graders showed that those with greater exposure to alcohol advertisements in magazines, on television, and at sporting and music events were more aware of the advertising and more likely to remember the advertisements they had seen.4
Slide12: A study of 12-year-olds found that children who were more aware of beer advertising held more favorable views on drinking and expressed an intention to drink more often as adults than did children who were less knowledgeable about the ads.5 A study on the responses of young people to alcohol advertising found that underage youth are drawn to music, animal and people characters, story and humor in alcohol advertising. Ads that were liked by youth in the study were more likely to elicit responses from youth saying they wanted to purchase the brand and products advertised. The three most popular alcohol ads among youth in the study used animal characters as the leading actors.6 Another study found that, among a group of 2,250 middle-school students, those who viewed more television programs containing alcohol commercials while in the seventh grade were more likely in the eighth grade to drink beer, wine/liquor, or to drink three or more drinks on at least one occasion during the month prior to the follow-up survey.8 Source: Center on Alcohol Marketing and Youth, 2006

Best Practices: Best Practices Form a Campus Safety coalition that includes all key stakeholders and charged by the President with addressing high-risk behavior Develop a critical incidence evaluation format for evaluating safety incidents Create a specific taskforce to explore strategies for reducing large off-campus parties that may result in increased high risk use
Slide29: President should create a commission to study the issues of tailgating (Game Day Environmental Management) Implement a safe-ride program More and expanded safety programs for pedestrians Safety related repairs should receive highest priority President should be visionary, vocal and visible on the issue. Rethink the admissions process and put more emphasis on alcohol prevention throughout
Slide30: More streamlined review and revision process for Student Code of Conduct. Improve relationships with social groups, especially Greeks. Increase the number of alcohol free events, such as Wild Cat Wild Nights Continue to conduct a biennial assessment. Use social norming and begin a significant, long-term, evaluated and sustained social norms campaign. Increase parent education. Form an alumni group that will support and promote a culture of responsible drinking Offer legal seminars about alcohol vending, provision and consumption and risk management.
Slide31: Support the formation of peer education groups (e.g., Genesis at UK) Enforce policies and have stronger sanctions Lobby for elimination of “happy hours” and “2 for 1” drink specials Lobby for greater taxes and restricted hours or “keg” registrations Lobby for more training for bartenders Focus on high risk rather than underage use
Slide32: Eliminate mass marketing to young people that portrays alcohol as fun, exciting and risk free Restrict the promotion, advertising and provision of alcohol to youth to impact social pressures to consume alcohol Screen incoming students for alcohol use disorders and at-risk behavior and hold mandatory counseling sessions (University of Central Florida)
Slide33: Offer more alcohol free social events on campus planned by students for students Use sporting events and high profile University staff and faculty to speak out against high risk alcohol use Expand programming for parents, especially those who think that drinking is fine as long as their student does not drink and drive
Slide34: Thank you Erin go Braugh!
